Willow covered with long green branches, swaying in the wind, as if gently stroking the bank. Water vapor evaporates between Shui Ze and vegetation and condenses like smoke.

[Brief analysis]

This is a poem describing the rural scenery in late spring, which gives us a picture of children flapping butterflies in spring.

The first two sentences, "the hedge is sparse and deep, and the flowers on the tree head are not shaded", point out the background of children catching butterflies. There are sparse fences and deep paths here. There are some trees near the fence, and the petals are falling from the branches one by one, and the young leaves are not yet turbid. Fences and paths point out that this is the countryside; "Flowers fall before they turn cloudy" and "cauliflower" in the sentence indicate that it is late spring season.

The last two sentences, "Children chase after Huang Die and fly into cauliflower, and there is nowhere to be found", turn the crayon to the center of the picture and depict the happy scene of children catching butterflies. "Catch up" and "catch up" mean to run fast and catch up quickly. These two verbs are very vivid, vividly depicting children's innocent and lively, curious and competitive manner and psychology. And "flying into cauliflower is nowhere to be found" will suddenly turn the moving lens into stillness. The word "nowhere to be found" left readers room for imagination and aftertaste, as if a child who was at a loss in the face of a golden cauliflower appeared in front of us.

This poem is simple, natural and vivid by using the technique of line drawing. Yang Wanli, an honest official, was once hated by traitors. After being removed from office, he lived in a village for a long time. He is very familiar with rural life, and his description of nature is very touching and interesting.
